I acquired it from the U.S. servicewoman that was the original owner and brought it back from tour of duty in Europe where she hunted boar with it; so it carries no importer stamp. Optics are the original Pecar Berlin 2 3/4-7 scope in Sako 26mm rings. Almost sold the scope, but decided to keep the package together. The scope is VERY good for its age; better than my VARI-X III's. Last edited by Cruiser1; 11/05/14.

safariman Campfire Ranger Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 27,500 Going BACK to Africa this year...	GW, is the thumbhole stock on the top gun a factory stock? The reson I ask is that other than being laminate VS heavily striped light colored Walnut the stock shape and stylization of that stock look to be the same as my Sako L-461 223 rifle. I always thought that the stock on mine was a later addittion or replacement. My thoughts were based partly on the thumbhole design and partly due to the exceptional wood on mine. But, maybe it is/was a factory handle? LOVE God, LOVE your family, LOVE your country, LIKE guns and sports.
